What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're due for routine cervical cancer screening or if you want to check for high-risk HPV, the virus that causes most cervical cancer. It's also useful if you've had an abnormal Pap result in the past and want more detailed follow-up information. Many women use this combined test as part of their regular wellness checkups even without symptoms.

How should I prepare for this test?

See the pre-collection instructions on your order confirmation.

What's included in this test?

This test combines a Pap smear, which looks at cervix cells for abnormal changes, with HPV mRNA testing, which checks for active high-risk HPV infection. If the initial HPV result is positive, a reflex test automatically checks for HPV types 16, 18, and 45, which carry the highest cancer risk. Together, these results give a fuller picture of your cervical health than a Pap test alone.

What happens after I get my results?
Your results will be available in your account, with each value explained alongside its normal range so you understand exactly what it means. If your Pap or HPV result comes back abnormal, the report will outline next steps, and severe or persistent abnormal results should prompt follow-up testing sooner rather than later. You can download a standard lab report anytime from your account, and use the trends feature to track your results over time if you retest in the future. Routine rescreening every 3-5 years is typical for most women, depending on age and prior results.
When will I get my results?
Results are typically ready within about 7 days of your sample being processed at the lab. You'll get a notification once your report is available in your account. Because this test involves cell analysis and possible reflex testing, turnaround can occasionally take a bit longer than a standard blood test.
Who should consider this test?
Women who are due for routine cervical cancer screening, have a history of abnormal Pap results, or want to know their HPV status should consider this test. It's also a good option if you haven't been screened in a few years or want extra peace of mind alongside a regular wellness visit. Screening guidelines generally recommend starting in your 20s and continuing on a regular schedule.
What symptoms indicate I may need this test?
Unusual vaginal bleeding, discharge, or pelvic pain can sometimes signal a cervical issue, though early HPV infection and cell changes often cause no symptoms at all. That's exactly why routine screening matters — most cervical cancer is preventable when caught early through testing rather than symptoms alone. If you're overdue for a Pap or have never been tested, this is a reasonable starting point.
How can I naturally support cervical health?
Quitting smoking is one of the most effective steps, since smoking makes it harder for your body to clear HPV infections. Eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, especially those high in antioxidants, supports your immune system's ability to fight off the virus. Practicing safe sex and limiting the number of partners can also lower your risk of new HPV exposure.
What does a positive HPV result mean?
A positive result means high-risk HPV DNA was found in your sample, which means the virus is currently active in your body. Most HPV infections clear on their own within one to two years thanks to your immune system, so a positive result doesn't mean you have or will get cancer. It does mean closer monitoring and follow-up testing are recommended to make sure the infection clears and doesn't cause cell changes.
How often should I retest?
Most guidelines recommend Pap and HPV co-testing every 3 to 5 years if your results are normal, though your personal history may call for a different schedule. If you've had an abnormal result, more frequent follow-up testing, sometimes every 6-12 months, is often recommended until things normalize. Use your account's trends feature to keep track of when you're due for your next test.
